Everyone Must Visit The Most Iconic Boardwalk In Maine Before They Die

Getting outside to experience the coast is one of the most quintessential activities to enjoy in Maine. And, with nearly 3,500 miles of roaring coast to enjoy, there’s certainly no shortage of ways to fall in love with the state. Hike to a secluded sandy beach, explore rocks or…head straight to this boardwalk pier which will take you back in time.

You might not consider Maine a consistent beach destination, but those who visit each and every summer know that there's plenty to do along the coast. The most iconic option? The Pier in OOB!

Since July 2nd, 1898, the boardwalk pier has been providing fun for kids and adults in the form of restaurants, bars and live music.

The pier has has its fair share of hardships - including being completely ruined by the great blizzard of 1978, but like the people of Maine themselves, it's always risen up again.

And, we're thankful for that given the incredible Maine food options available here.

...to small storefronts offering perfectly battered fresh seafood of all sorts.

We especially love the pier this time of year, when things are quiet and calm. Get it in now before the crowds arrive in just a few short months!

The Pier is located at 2 Old Orchard St., Old Orchard Beach, Maine. You can explore the area every day right now, but the best time to see the pier is when it’s open this summer.

For another way to explore the coast of Maine, consider this drive along on of the most scenic areas in the state.
